Thread: Tank Damage...

    Tank Damage...

    Ok... Simply what order would you put tank damage in? from best to worst... cos me as a blood DK seem to get beat off a druid tank on like every fight we do the same stuff on. Will of the emporer is perfect example, even thought i get more strikes than him he still beats me on damage, my Healing Required is lower than his so im less pain for our healers which is the main thing but as damage i dont do as well as him, is this normal for blood DK against druid tank, or should I be doing the same or even better damage than him? Cheers

    I think the warrior you were healing was not using there Def cool downs cause my leveling warrior requires very little healing and I have yet to be beat in damage done granted hes only 53. I have been tanking since I hit 15 haven't done any quest since.

    Blood dks have been immensely strong ever since Dragon Soul.

    Bears right now are kinda stuck in limbo imo.
    Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.
    So I chose the path of the Ebon Blade, and not a day passes where i've regretted it.

    Not only that, but it seems like Blood DK's do more DPS than other tanks as well with our groups.

    We bears are tricky... we need a lot of rage to use our primary defense ability, and even then its only a chance to dodge. There are lots of disagreements as to how we should best approach this problem. Personally, I'm using armor and mastery elixers to boost my damage reduction from armor to around 70% and using my rage for healing more often then dodge as our self heal has no minimum rage requirement.
    It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning.

    Blood DK and Brewmaster Monks deal enormous amounts of damage, even single target.

    OP is referring to damage done....
    On topic, I would say Brewmaster, I've raided as a BrM with warrior / DK / bear tanks and completely stomp them, and a lot of our dpsers lol. Brewmaster is beastly.
